The diversity and ecology of spiders were studied in Ngoc Thanh buffer zone of Tam Dao National Park, Cuc Phuong buffer zone of Cuc Phuong National Park, and Ba Trai buffer zone of Ba Vi National Park. Spiders were collected by five methods: pitfall traps, litter sampling, tree beating, sweep netting and visual searches in four types of habitats in...
A new genus and thirteen species of jumping spiders from northern Vietnam are reported. Zabka gen. nov. is erected to accommodate two species transferred from Euophrys Blackwall,1841, including the generotype, Z. cooki (Żabka, 1985), comb. nov., and Z. xuyei (Lin & Li, 2020), comb. nov. Twelve new species are described: Chinattus crewsae sp. nov. (...
Two new species of scorpion belonging to the family Pseudochactidae and to the genus Vietbocap are described based on specimens collected in the Thien Duong cave, which belongs to the Vom cave system, in the Phong Nha-Ke Bang National Park, Quang Binh Province, Vietnam. The previously described species from this cave, Vietbocap thienduongensis Lour...
A species of the genus Cyclocosmia Ausserer, 1871 collected from Guizhou Province, China is diagnosed and described as new to science: Cyclocosmialiui Xu, Xu & Li, sp. n. (♀). New records of Cyclocosmialatusicosta Zhu, Zhang & Zhang, 2006 (♀) from China (Yunnan Province) and Vietnam (Vinh Phuc Province, Ninh Binh Province), and Cyclocosmiaricketti...
A faunistic inventory is proposed for the known Vietnamese scorpion species. The aim of this contribution is to bring an up-to-date checklist of all known species in Vietnam, prior to a more detailed study of the Vietnamese fauna to be performed by one of the authors (T.-H.T.) in the context of the preparation of a doctoral degree. Final taxonomic...
Status survey of the cave scorpion, Euscorpiops cavernicola, was carried in a cave system of Bac Kan province. A total of 56 (9 adults) and 45 (7 adults) individuals were recorded during the years 2014 and 2015, respectively. This species is only known from Hua Ma cave, which is strongly threatened by tourism development. Based on the current area...
Living fossils are lineages that have retained plesiomorphic traits through long time periods. It is expected that such lineages have both originated and diversified long ago. Such expectations have recently been challenged in some textbook examples of living fossils, notably in extant cycads and coelacanths. Using a phylogenetic approach, we teste...
Among the genera of the subfamily Scorpiopinae Kraepelin, 1905 Alloscorpiops remains rather discrete. Only recently new species were added to this genus, increasing its number from two to five. Therefore, species of Alloscorpiops remain rare. One remarkable new species, Alloscorpiops
troglodytes
sp. n., is described on the basis of a single male sp...
Scorpiops (Vietscorpiops) dentidactylus subgen. n. et sp. n., belonging to the family Euscorpiidae Laurie, 1896, is described on the basis of single male collected in Dien Bien Province, Muong Nhe District, Nam Vi Commune, in a limestone formation covered by rainforest, in the extreme North of Vietnam. The new subgenus is characterized by the prese...
One new species Belisana
denticulata
sp. n. (♂) is reported from northern Vietnam based on material collected by fogging the forest canopy. This species resembles Belisana
scharffi Huber, 2005, but can be distinguished by relatively long distance between proximal parts of proximo-lateral apophysis and distal apophysis on male chelicerae, by presenc...
Five genera and 26 species belonging to two subfamilies Arteminae Simon, 1893 (one genus and one species) and Pholcinae C.L. Koch, 1850 (four genera and 25 species) are reported from northern Vietnam, including 19 new species of three genera: Belisana babensis sp. nov. (male, female; Bac Kan), B. cheni sp. nov. (male, female; Bac Kan), B. clavata s...
In an era of biodiversity crisis, arthropods have great potential to inform conservation assessment and test hypotheses about community assembly. This is because their relatively narrow geographic distributions and high diversity offer high-resolution data on landscape-scale patterns of biodiversity. However, a major impediment to the more widespre...
Euscorpiops dakrong sp. n., appartenant à la famille des Euscorpiidae Laurie, est décrit à partir d’un mâle et d’une femelle collectés dans une grotte de la « Dakrong Nature Reserve », située dans le district de Dakrong et dans la province de Quang Tri, au Vietnam. La nouvelle espèce présente les caractéristiques propres aux scorpions du genre Eusc...
Une nouvelle espèce appartenant au genre Chaerilus Simon, 1877 est décrite d’une grotte située dans le district de Dien Bien, à l’ouest de Dien Bien Phu City, au nord du Vietnam. La nouvelle espèce est morphologiquement similaire à d’autres espèces de Chaerilus distribuées uniquement dans le Sud du Vietnam et du Cambodge. Ceci suggère un cas d’espè...
Euscorpiops cavernicola sp. n., belonging to the family Euscorpiidae Laurie, is described on the basis of two male and two female specimens collected in the Hua Ma cave located in the Quang Khe commune, Ba Be district of Bac Kan province in Viet Nam. The new species presents most features exhibited by scorpions within the genus Euscorpiops, however...
Spider family Hahniidae was firstly recorded from Vietnamin the present paper. In total, three genera and five species were recorded in three national parks of Northern Vietnam: Alistra hamata sp. nov. (male), Hahnia himalayaensis Hu & Zhang, 1990 (male, female), H. rimiformis sp. nov. (male, female), H. zhejiangensis Song & Zheng, 1982 (male, fema...
A survey of leaf-litter spiders was carried out in April 2008 and March 2009 at three National Parks in Northern Vietnam, such as, Cuc Phuong National Park (CPNP, red river delta tropical monsoon climate), Tam Dao National Park (TDNP, high mountain tropical monsoon climate) and Cat Ba National Park (CBNP, maritime climate). Four types of habitat ch...
A second species of scorpion belonging to the family Pseudochactidae and to the genus Vietbocap is described from two specimens collected in the Thien Duong cave, which belongs to the Vom cave system, in the Phong Nha - Ke Bang National Park, Quang Binh Province, Vietnam. Like the previously described species of Vietbocap, the new species is also a...
Spiders were sampled from one-hectare tropical rainforest plots in three parks in northern Vietnam. Inventories were based on ecologically structured sampling employing five methods. A series of non-parametric estimators were used to extrapolate the true species richness from the samples for each locality and indicate the magnitude of sampling effo...
A new genus and species of scorpion belonging to the family Pseudochactidaeare described based on four specimens collected in the Tien Son cave at the Phong Nha - Ke Bang National Park, Quang Binh Province, Vietnam. The new species represents a true troglobitic element, the first one known for the family Pseudochactidae. This represents the third k...
The Phong Nha-Ke Bang National Park (PNKBNP) is situated in the Quang Binh province of north central Vietnam.
